The aim of this study was research antibodies from infection by Leishmania spp. and Toxoplasma gondii in nonhuman primates (HNP) and compare the techniques of reaction of Indirect immunofluorescence (IFAT) and Modified Agglutination Test (MAT) for the search of T. gondii. Fourteen adults monkeys (Cebus apella) were examined, from the Centre for Rehabilitation of Wild Animals (CRAS) from Campo Grande, MS. The research of anti- Leishmania spp. was performed by IFAT and research of anti-T. gondii was held by IFAT and MAT. No sample was positive for the detection of anti-Leishmania spp. We found a prevalence of 28.7% (4/14) by IFAT and 30.8% (4/ 13) by MAT in search of anti-T. gondii. The techniques presented agreement when used for the detection of anti-T. gondii in the population studied. The presence of antibodies T. gondii may be related to the environment contaminated by oocysts of wild felines, by contact with the parasite by handling food, since they were offered fruit and raw meat or the invasion by birds and/or rodents, which may serve as prey by monkeys. |
